Ordered a Monitor and paid via paypal.
Paypal confirmed payment was received by buy.com
Received e-mail saying Thank you for your order.
Here is when the nightware started!!!
1. Buy.com cancelled my order and sent an email saying that I never completed the paypal transfer (even through did and had a confirmation from papal to prove it! )
2. Was charged for an item that they are refusing to send me!
3. No phone numbers, no way to contact company.
I finally found a numbers after hours of searching on the internet that I had to call long distance.
I was told there is not even 1 person at the main office that could talk to me about this serious problem.
I was then transferred to an Indian call center where I had to speak to an Indian who could not speak English and I could hardly understand or hear what he was saying because of the poor(VOIP) connection. He says that I need to contact paypal over and over again. I guess these guys don't understand how to look into a situation and recognize an error, but rather just shift blame to someone else.
Paypal was not to blame; they sent buy.com the money just find. Someone at buy.com decided to cancel my order after I paid for it!
I explained to him that
This is a verified paypal account
This is a confirmed address
Payment was sent and received by buy.com
It was the same address on paypal as on buy.com order page.
I guess they have a system that might be case sensitive and if you don’t type the address exactly (and I MEAN EXACTLY) it will reject it.
The fact that your shipping to confirmed paypal address and your a verfied member must not be good enough for these Indians. Geeze.
This was for a special deal on a monitor that they have ran out. So basically because of the horrible system, I am left without a monitor and out $300.
This indians are either completely incompetent or this is a big scam. Do not trust them or they will rip you off and you will have no one to call into except maybe an foreign Indian center if your lucky enough to get the long distance phone number! This company has really lost it over the years. These Indian call/processing centers are a joke and costing buy.com any creditability.
